It's been a whirlwind week for Derek Mason since he stepped onto Vanderbilt's campus. From recruiting, team meetings, press conferences, public appearances, and much more, Mason has hit the ground running as the man in charge of the Commodore football program.

Vanderbilt's photographers--John Russell, Joe Howell, Steve Green and Daniel Dubois--were there to capture every moment of Mason's first 48 hours on West End.

Take a look through their lens at 38 images in VUcommodores' Photo Gallery.
